Falconets Urged to Win Against New Caledonia for Knockout
Ahead of the Falconets' last group match against New Caledonia at the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup in Poland, Dr. Emmanuel Ikpeme, the acting General Secretary of the Nigeria Football Federation, called on the team to perform well to secure a place in the Round of 16. He emphasized the importance of winning and scoring goals, as the team currently has one point after a 0-0 draw with China and a previous loss to Spain.
Ikpeme highlighted that a victory would not only improve their points tally but also help in overcoming the two-goal deficit from the earlier match. He communicated with the players after their training session in Łódz, stressing the need for clarity of purpose and ambition in their approach.
The Falconets must win decisively to enhance their goal difference.
